Where f(x) is a given forcing function...

What is the solution to Y’’(x) + 2y’(x) + 5y(x) = f(x) Where f(x) is a given forcing function, and y and f both decay to 0 as x  +_ INF Note: should read “as x approaches plus or minus infinity”

Application of Fourier Transfors to Diffusion

Using Fourier Transforms, solve the one-dimensional equation for a point source located at x=xo, i.e., at time zero, c(x,0) = (delta)(x-xo)
